Years after breaking up with pro-athlete Tom Brady, Bridget Moynahan is finally happy in her love life.
Many of us remember that after two years together, Moynahan and Brady broke up. Soon after, Moynahan revealed she was three months pregnant with their child, who is now 16.
Moynahan went through her pregnancy as a single mother, but she has found happiness in her life.
In a 2008 interview with *Harper’s Bazaar*, the 52-year-old actress shared her unexpected journey as a single mother. She said, “I never thought I would raise a child alone,” and expressed her hope for a loving partner in her life.
Finding out she was pregnant was a big shock for Bridget Moynahan. As an actress and former model, it was especially challenging for her because she always believed in marriage before having children.
In the same *Harper’s Bazaar* interview, Moynahan explained, “I’m a traditional girl, and I believe in marriage, and I always thought that’s the way I’d be having a family. For a moment, it was hard for me to accept that this was the way it was going to be.”
Her relationship with former NFL star Tom Brady ended “amicably” in early December 2006. Soon after the breakup, Moynahan discovered she was three months pregnant. At that time, Brady had started dating supermodel Gisele Bündchen, which made the situation even more complicated.
Looking back on the “traumatic” experience, Moynahan said she had to go through her pregnancy and have a baby under intense media scrutiny. She admitted, “I’m not sure anyone grows up thinking, I want to be a single mom.”
While Moynahan was busy raising her son, Jack, Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen got married in February 2009. Just ten months later, they had their first child, Benjamin, and in December 2012, they welcomed their second child, Vivian. Unfortunately, they divorced in 2022 after 13 years together.
In her memoir, Bündchen admitted that learning about Brady and Moynahan’s baby was difficult for her. She said, “Two months into our relationship, Tom told me that his ex-girlfriend was pregnant. The very next day, the news was everywhere, and I felt my world got turned upside down.”
Despite the challenges, Moynahan found joy in her son, John “Jack” Edward Thomas, who was born in 2007.
In her 2019 book, *Our Shoes, Our Selves*, Moynahan wrote about the struggles she faced during that time, especially feeling overwhelmed by public attention. “Having a baby should have been the most joyous time of my life, but instead, I felt assaulted,” she said.
Despite these difficulties, she embraced motherhood and found it more fulfilling than her modeling and acting careers. Moynahan has often expressed her love for being a mother and the positive impact it has had on her life. “I have become that mother I used to dread. Every time he does something, you think he’s a genius. He’s a genius,” she told *Harper’s Bazaar*.
Moynahan’s personal life took a happy turn when she met Andrew Frankel, 49, through mutual friends. The couple got engaged in April 2015 and had a secret wedding at Wolffer Estate Vineyard in Sagaponack, New York, in October of the same year. Their small, private ceremony celebrated their love, and instead of gifts, they asked guests to donate to The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp.
Moynahan looked back on her beautiful wedding with gratitude, appreciating the special details of her dress and the celebration. Fans were also thrilled for Moynahan, feeling she deserved this happy ending after her public breakup and journey as a single mother.https://www.instagram.com/p/B3uVB25pXV-/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=14&wp=270&rd=https%3A%2F%2Fhuffbreak.com&rp=%2Fbridget-moynahans-dream-wedding-see-her-stunning-ceremony-years-after-tom-brady-split%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0DJckUlbmeq9vxrD1ps3GA9DsNaErWMJEyGdMvaKFziaAdimyx8TrrLAs_aem_JJWXIwVgNXFuZRpcaQfiXw#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A1905.6000000238419%2C%22ls%22%3A1094%2C%22le%22%3A1772.699999988079%7D
Moynahan and Frankel’s blended family consists of his three sons from a previous relationship, creating a loving and supportive environment for Jack.
Despite the unexpected twists in her journey, Moynahan is thankful for the extended family her son has, telling More magazine (via Us Weekly): “My son has two loving parents and an extended family, whether it’s cousins or stepmothers or boyfriends. My son is surrounded by love.”
In sharing her story, it’s clear that Moynahan is someone who embodies resilience and embracing the unpredictability of life. She’s consistently demonstrated the strength of a mother determined to provide love and support for her child, and that’s certainly an admirable trait.

A Bride Won’t Change Wedding Time for Sister’s Nap Schedule and Stands Firm
When two individuals maintain their limits, conflict may arise. In today’s tale, a woman defied her obstinate sister by refusing to back down. She had a valid cause, too: she was getting married.
The pair decided to get married in the autumn.
My fiancé and I will wed in October of this year. We are ecstatic about our January engagement. We are only inviting close family and friends to the intimate wedding.
My sister Lisa is the source of the issue. Lisa and her spouse are parents to a 2-year-old kid. I can’t put all the reasons why I don’t have a really loving connection with Lisa into this post.
The wedding invites were sent out last month. We asked our guests to please attend at the site by 1:00 p.m. as our wedding ceremony is scheduled to begin at 1:30 p.m. Since the event will be held near our hometown, Lisa and most of the other guests will be able to easily get there.
Lisa informed me that her 2-year-old’s nap schedule meant the timing “wouldn’t work.” She explained that he naps at twelve and that she is not pressuring him to stay awake so she can prepare him for the occasion, otherwise he will be a nightmare. Despite the fact that I am childless, I felt this was an absurd excuse.
Lisa told me she couldn’t get a babysitter because all of her trusted people would be attending the wedding when I asked. She claimed she wouldn’t be able to make the wedding, so I proposed that they at least go to the reception.
She informed me that if the time isn’t changed, she won’t be at the wedding. I informed her that was not possible. Lisa declared she wouldn’t be going then. This pained me a great deal. I immediately ended the conversation with an excuse because I wasn’t sure how to respond at the time.
Lisa asked me what I thought of her suggestion a few days later. I reminded her that we are unable to alter the time. She said she hopes I’m glad they’re not coming and that everyone will wonder why she’s not there, and that it’s all because I can’t bring my nephew. The world doesn’t revolve around her and her son, I informed her angrily. She blocked me after calling me a bridezilla.
I simply don’t think I’m at fault, despite my mother’s persistent demands that I make apologies with Lisa.
